Dying
' In a strange way it was a good day. We were able to share things. I read to Mark. I gave him his last bath. Then early in the evening he kissed me and said, " Let's call it quits, Pooh." And he died about half an hour later.' SANDY, a pretty young widow, describing the last day of her husband, Mark. She had been warned some months earlier that he had no more than five months left to live. This programme tells her story, and the story of three other people who have been given a sentence of death by their doctors.
The way they cope with the knowledge is sometimes heartening, sometimes puzzling and sometimes horrifying, but it shows clearly how the way you face death reflects the way you have lived, and how important are human relationships and a sense of family continuity.

The Numbers

About this project

This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed
in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC
programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.

We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC
programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement
with the BBC.

Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search
function to find
thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available
to view or listen to on the BBC website, and programmes to
purchase.

There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a
historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any
given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the
understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time
- not those of today.

Welcome to BBC Genome

Genome is a digitised version of the Radio Times from 1923 to 2009 and
is made available for internal research purposes only. You will need to
obtain the relevant third party permissions for any use, including use in
programmes, online etc.

This internal version of Genome, which includes all the magazine covers,
images and articles as well as the programme listings from the Radio
Times, is different to the version of BBC Genome that is available
externally/to the public. It is only available inside the BBC network.
